3 – 5 October 2024
With the widespread adoption of competition laws around the globe, new challenges arise when competition law is transplanted in countries with varying degrees of economic development. Even though significant efforts have been made on the EU level and globally to ensure that jurisdictions adopt common principles and tools for the analysis of anti-competitive
conduct and mergers, competition law, is not a one-size-fits-all set of rules and can vary significantly across different regions worldwide. In that sense, avoiding consistent competition in law enforcement and ensuring a harmonized decision-making approach is one of the key challenges and a key goal for current and future competitive law enforcement. In this sense, this Conference aims to explore new legislative initiatives, harmonization efforts and main challenges to effective competition law enforcement in South and East European Countries (and broader). Furthermore, looking ahead, the purpose of this Conference is also to address how evolving global trends, such as digital technologies, sustainable development goals and other contemporary issues, shape the future of competition in different regions. The conference intends to gather legal researchers, policymakers, professionals, practitioners and other stakeholders from EU, SEE Countries and worldwide to explore the new trends and developments in competition law from global and developments in competition law from global and regional perspectives.
